I have 4 guineas who are very picky due to being spoiled. They eat all veggies and almost all fruits, dandelions, anything that I know they love. I've been purchasing my Timothy Hay in 35 pounds or more from a farm. Even though the hay from the farm is less expensive,[...] the hay I got from the farm was not all eaten by the Guineas. They would eat the seed tops off and make bedding from the rest. This is my first time purchasing Oxbox after buying from the farm and I have to say that when I feed them Oxbow hay there is no leftover hay, for bedding. I have to assume that they are eating it all and they must love it. I've tried Kaytee hay when I first got my Guineas and I will never purchase that brand again. I got more splinters than I was willing to deal with. Also 2 of my guineas had splinters in their eyeballs from Kaytee hay. I have to say that I probably saved money on the purchase [...] because the Guineas are not wasting the hay as they were with the organic farm hay. Hope this helps.

OMG.. i can't believe.. i trust oxbow but they make me angry! there are so many brown leaves. and even leaves have mold.so i can't feed my rabbit. and i get rid of all of thing...

I nearly switched off OxBow the shipment before this last one; but re-ordered any way due to past experience- and it worked out well for me. I hope OB pays attention to our comments about the "short orders" that are 1/4 dust and inferior product. To stay loyal, we need excellent product ALL the time. Thank you. gec

Quality is back. Nice long green coarser cut of timothy with loads of flower tops. Hadn't ordered for a good while due buying 100 lbs of this hay and it was like grass clippings. Took a chance and it's a quality bale this time. When feeding exotic mammals who eat only the coarser timothy hay as their main diet it has to be the long stemmed coarse cut of timothy or they don't eat, can become impacted and your money is wasted. So keep carrying this cut of hay as its a winner.

Commented months ago saying I was on my 2nd box. First was superb, 2nd was stalky but the pigs used some of it as bedding anyway. I've received my 3rd box and it's absolutely awful. All stalk, yellow/brown and has a moldy smell. In 2.5 years of purchasing this product, I've seen a drastic decline in quality. I would no longer recommend this hay. I'd much rather recommended staying as far away from it as possible.

I've been buying the Oxbow timothy hay for my rabbit through petfooddirect for a couple of years now and I have never had a problem until now. Before my last order it has always been fresh and green. I just bought a 90 lb. bag and when you look in the bag, you see the brown hay in there, but you still see some green. For some reason when you take it out of the bag and put it in his cage, it is all brown within 5-6 hours. After reading the reviews, it seems I'm not the only one that is experiencing the same problem. I'm very disappointed.
